I think that this probably falls into the area of History. :-)

The Railroads of Madison County http://madisonrails.railfan.net has a number of memory articles/stories concerning NYC and PC. Maurice Lewman was a fireman and engineer with NYC and then PC and CR and Jim Peters was Towerman and Station Agent with NYC, PC and CR.

Also, there is a tour of the (now) CSX Big Four Avon Yard near Indianapolis as it is today. There is a bit on the Big Four/PC depot in downtown Anderson that is currently being restored for another 100 years. Feel free to stop in and take a look.

No, I don't have a lot of PC photos, but there are qiote a few photos taken over the years right up until today. And I have just received shots of two PC wrecks on the Michigan Division. It'll be several days before I can get them scanned and put up. I'm waiting for a few more.

Enjoy!

Roger

Gotcha! There is one! It is a concrete bridge with the PC logo in it. :-)
